[quote=Anonymous]I’m the PP who asked the wedding question – I think it’s totally fine to have a single ceremony and reception without music/dancing.  People watch the ceremony, eat dinner, mingle with others, take a 1000 pics and go home.  But I see no reason to have a ceremony/reception thrown by the bride, followed by a outdoor bbq type of party the next day, following by a reception thrown by the groom’s family the next day, if all of them are going to be the exact same. I realize that really conservative families don’t dance, but is there a prohibition on music? Is there a prohibition on actually dancing or does it extend to watching dancing? I’ve been to middle eastern weddings, where there are hired performers who do a little show, which is lively; I’ve even been to conservative Christian weddings where there is little dancing but then they’ll have a section of a marching band from whatever school the bride/groom went to come through and play some live music.  It’s just stuff to keep things fun  And are conservative families really against all casual contact – I feel like a touch football/soccer game at an outdoor party is not so out of line.  They did nothing like this and if they had, I am positive it would be a ‘brothers only’ type of event.  Why do a wedding weekend if it’s just three days of talking?[/quote]
